Common Questions
When & How to book?
The sooner the better! My weekends book up fast during the fall and spring seasons. That being said, I also shoot on weekdays.
If you’re booking a lifestyle shoot, please try to schedule at least 1-3 months prior. For weddings I recommend at least 6 months in advance.
Please head over to my contact form on my website to get started.
In order to secure your date, I require both a signed contract and a 30% non-refundable retainer.
Where are you based and do you travel?
I am based in Palm Springs, but love to venture out of the desert to some new scenery. There will be an added travel fee depending on the location.

Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes! I have two wedding collections that offer a complimentary 30-90 minute engagement session. It can also be an add on for my smaller wedding packages.
If you're looking to only do an engagement session, that's fine too. I offer 30-90 minute sessions on their own.
How will I receive my images?
I will email you an online password protected gallery that can be shared and unlimited downloaded. You will be able to download the low-res and high-res retouched digital images to your computer, Dropbox, or Google Photos account.
The gallery is up for 6 months after delivery.
Do you require a retainer?
Yes, I require a 30% non-refundable retainer at the time of booking. The final amount is due one week before the session date.
Do you have general liability insurance?
Yes I do and can provide that to any venue that needs it.
When will I get my photos?
Typically I deliver lifestyle sessions in about 2-3 weeks depending on the season and 6-8 weeks for wedding photography.
Will I get a print release?
Yes. The contract you sign to book your session includes the print release for all the retouched images in your online gallery.
Do you offer prints?
Absolutely. In fact, your gallery has an integrated online print store where you can conveniently order prints, photo albums, canvas, etc.
Do you have any add-ons?
I offer additional hours if needed as well as a 7 day expedited gallery delivery.
